In front of the door, the two looked at each other closely.
Hearing Chen Ping's words, Cheng Yuanjian licked his lips and laughed: "One wrong step and one wrong step. I can't seem to say this in front of adults. Speaking of which, I really envy you, Mr. Chen. You were born in a peasant family but you can get such a six-yuan rank."
Waiting for the honor."
"It must have been very hard these years, right?"
Chen Ping was silent. He didn't expect that this man, who he had known for only half a year and was the person responsible for that disaster, could actually see the deepest weakness in his heart.
"Sometimes, luck is important."
"I admire your choice very much. Don't worry, I will let King Chu know how stupid he was for not reusing you."
Chen Ping seemed to be addressing Cheng Yuanjian in advance, and when he heard Chen Ping talking about the King of Chu, Cheng Yuanjian's eyes lit up.
"It's the King of Chu, it's him indeed! It's indeed him!"
"You already know, yes, yes, I know you are not that simple."
Cheng Yuanjian gasped and roared: "Come on, Chen Ping, I use my life as a bargaining chip. You show them how powerful I am and how powerful you are!"
"Who said there is no time for mud-legged people to stand up? You are a farmer and I am a businessman, hahaha!"
Watching Cheng Yuanjian leave half madly, Chen Ping frowned and paid tribute to the guy who had always been against him.
This is a respectable opponent.
"His determination is very tenacious."
Luo Li didn't know when he came behind him, and his eyes followed the direction Cheng Yuanjian left.
Chen Ping didn't say anything. Cheng Yuanjian knew his situation and his choices. He knew a lot, but there were very few things he could change.
In the end, I can only use this method to fulfill my wish, and it is still through my own hands.
This kind of perseverance made Chen Ping feel that if Cheng Yuanjian were luckier, perhaps his achievements would not be inferior to his own.
However, perhaps due to an unexpected mistake, Cheng Yuanjian could only be a despised businessman for the rest of his life, and he had to work hard for his superiors, and even throw it away like garbage afterwards.
"Human life is like a piece of grass."
Cheng Yuanjian will undoubtedly die. If he doesn’t kill him, the King of Chu will not let him go.
Chen Ping slowly closed the door, looked down at the bag of letters in his hand, and held it tightly.
......
The information sent by Cheng Yuanjian was crucial. He allowed Chen Ping to thoroughly confirm and see clearly the structure of the organization, completely solving the doubts that had troubled Chen Ping for ten years.
The human-level twelve hours are distributed in thirteen states in the world, and Jingzhou is directly responsible for the King of Chu.
Above that, there are prefectural-level government and opposition officials, not only in the capital, but also in local areas. As for the top-level heaven-level officials...
Chen Ping looked south, which was the direction of his hometown Qianzhou and the direction of Jingzhou, the fiefdom of King Chu.
"Your Highness King Chu, I finally found you..."
Sometimes, seeing something clearly is not necessarily a good thing, but may lead to death for yourself.
Chen Ping didn't dare to gamble, but he had to gamble because he couldn't help himself now.
Now that you have entered the big dye vat of officialdom, how can you keep your color unchanged?
Three days later, the morning dynasty will begin.
When everyone thought that this morning meeting was just like usual, Chen Ping had already made a decision in his heart.
"Your Majesty, I have my heart and I want to tell you!"
In the spacious palace, Chen Ping's voice echoed back and forth. In this court full of officials of the fifth rank and above, Chen Ping's speech, compiled from the sixth rank, seemed particularly harsh.
Almost instantly, hundreds of eyes in the court hall looked at Chen Ping, and Emperor Tianqi, who was leaning on the dragon chair, had a glint in his eyes and nodded to signal Chen Ping to continue.
"In recent years, smuggling cases have appeared one after another in various states across the country. I investigated the files of these cases and found that the matter not only spread locally, but also involved the capital city!"
"I followed the various routes and found a big fish!"
Chen Ping's remarks were explosive. Everyone in the civil and military dynasties knew that he carried the hatred of his mentor's murder. As for who was the real culprit behind this incident, except for a few insiders, the other officials more or less had their own guesses. .
Now that Chen Ping has played such a king bomb, it can be said that it has directly ignited the already dry wood pile in the court hall, and the fire is cooking oil, just in an instant!
"Your Majesty, your Majesty..."
"Did I let you speak? Listen to what he has to say!"
Emperor Tianqi's majestic scolding resounded throughout the hall, and the expressions of the Chu party officials headed by the Minister of War and the Imperial Censor suddenly changed, and they all exchanged glances.
Chen Ping knew that Cheng Yuanjian was not dead yet, so he continued calmly.
"The Cheng family in the capital, bribed and colluded with officials from all over the country, and engaged in smuggling to earn money. It has grown and expanded to the thirteen states in the world. It has been poisoning the people for a long time. I have obtained the evidence of the Cheng family's crimes. Please order your Majesty to order the house to be confiscated immediately. Apprehend to set the record straight!"
After speaking in one breath, Chen Ping glanced at the Minister of Works, the Minister of Rites and others with piercing eyes, his eyes full of provocation.
Since you are determined to be this gun, you must show some edge, otherwise others will think you are just a rusty gun and not take it seriously.
If it were in the past, Chen Ping would frown at such behavior that revealed his intentions, but now?
The emperor's time is running out to support him. If the King of Chu's influence is not wiped out as soon as possible, who will be able to control the situation once the emperor dies and the young prince ascends the throne?
There’s been enough time to prepare our troops, now it’s time to show off our swords.
On the surface, it seems that he is only targeting the Cheng family, but anyone with a discerning eye can see that it is impossible for a businessman of the Cheng family to win over officials from thirteen states in the world, and the amount of money bribed alone is far from enough.
It is still possible for lower-level officials to be bribed, but no middle-level official will risk his career or even his family's life for the money.
Chen Ping’s spearhead refers to the Chu Party!
"Your Majesty! Chen Ping..."
"Your Majesty! I believe that what Chen Xiuzan said is related to the foundation of the country, and must be dealt with strictly and quickly. The smugglers must not be allowed to destroy evidence to get rid of their charges or even defect from the country!"
When the Imperial Censor of the Chu Party wanted to stand up and start a rant, Qi Hongming, the young minister of Dali Temple, took the lead and came to Chen Ping's aid.
After that, Su Chengli, the minister of the Ministry of War, Ming Chengdao, the supervisory censor, and Xie Jinan, the imperial edict of the Hanlin Academy, all stepped forward to express their positions.
At this moment, Chen Ping blew the trumpet continuously, and the five people formed a firm alliance and glanced coldly at the officials in the palace.
On the dragon throne, Emperor Tianqi, who only knew how long he could live, had extremely sharp eyes and an invisible aura, firmly controlling the situation in the court.
Under this situation, anyone who dares to speak out will be dragged down on the spot.
The Chu party officials who were originally ready to fight for a chance or even a counter-attack in the court did not dare to move, while the other officials were extremely nervous.
At this moment, they finally knew that Emperor Tianqi's forbearance in the past few months or even more than ten years finally broke out at this moment!
